You are the last caretaker; a reawakened machine tasked with saving the future of the human race by delivering embryos from a desolate earth to the remaining human settlements in space. Offering a rich narrative to discover across a world shaped by humanity’s choices and consequences, you’ll uncover—step by step—the story behind your awakening, the echoes of those who came before, and the ultimate question of what it truly means to be human.

The Last Caretaker is a thoughtful take on the survival-crafting genre featuring a modular crafting system and resource-based combat with unrivalled depth.

  • Dynamic Resource Management: Your resources are your means of survival. Whether crafting weapons for offense or saving your materials for an easy exit -  you decide your priorities, what to create, how much to use and how much to keep.
  • Immersive Locations: Explore a vast ocean world filled with abandoned structures, mysterious laboratories, and humanity’s last remaining harbours.
  • Crafting & Recycling: The world is your salvage yard. Dismantle abandoned structures, tear down machinery, and decide what is worth carrying to the recycler to craft weapons, power grids, and tools.

The Last Caretaker will be released into Early Access for Windows PC on Steam and the Epic Games Store in 2025 with a console release to follow.
